From 8 we've got live coverage of the main event, the £10,000 Primo.
Extensive coverage of one tournament then, all the way till we drop at midnight.
And leading up to the kick-off, we'll bring you the highlights of Thursday's £12K Sky Sports Bounty Hunter final table between 7-8pm.
Bringing it all to you will be
Me. Richard Orford... ![](http://us.v-cdn.net/6030042/uploads/content/12/10/8c95bf9a-b6ae-4bf4-9aaa-34342f03395d.Medium.jpg)
Fit those pants quite well, don't I?
And him. Ross Jarvis.

Who fits his pants quite well too.
So I'm told.
Now- special day today- not only is it the hottest of the year, and obv a Primo day. But a rather unlikely hat-trick is now looking good...
(1) Tikay through to Day 2 of the WSOP!
(2) A British player wins Wimbledon for the first time in 77 years!
(3) .....?
Complete the unlikely hat-trick!
What would need to happen next to make this most remarkable hat-trick ever? (Let's just assume Murray wins- I realise of course this may be horribly and painfully out-of-date come 6pm, but let's live in hope).
Is it, for example, Newcastle United shock everyone and win the Premier League?
TommyD doesn't appear at some stage during a Sky Poker broadcast?
You end your losing run of 16 £22 DYMs with a narrow victory in a 60p one?
You get the gist.
Stick YOUR suggestions on here, along with questions for Ross, hand requests and all your excellent banter, without which this show just would not go.
Or do it via email skyopen@bskyb.com, or twitter #skypokertv
So, my lovely poker friends, stay in the shade, preserve your energy and wits, and see you tonight for some big main event action

Have a great show.

3rd suggestion for the unlikely hat-trick would be :
Richard Orford to be known as Rachael Orford and admit his dark side he has been keeping from the world.

Hey guys. Just after a bit of advice from Ross. We have a local tournament each year where you play nine 30-minute levels on weeknights and those still in qualify for a semi-final on the weekend, and then those at the end of 9 more levels from the two semi’s play on a final night. I have qualified for the semi but only will be going back with about a 25 BB stack (and antes will be kicking in). I am an ok player but expect to be playing better players and was just wandering what my general thinking should be when I turn up. Am I sitting for a bit and hoping for a big hand, am I just shoving all-in over loose players or any limpers regardless of my hole cards, or should I be doing something else? Any advice welcome.
There is a fun forum HU Tournie going on at the moment (pokerchat)
Thought it would be a good to do the draw live on the Show if possible!
Names to be put in the hat:
Acegooner
K8Lou
Goldenballz or SteelRod
Larson7
Jordz or Roguecell
Dohhhhhh
BBMike
CKD or Jimbod

Pommefrittes or Day4Eire
Thanks!

1) Tikay making day two (seemed pretty likely to me, to be honest)
2) A British player winning Wimbledon (didn't see that coming)
3) BorinLoner getting a girlfriend (guaranteed not to happen)
To be fair, number 3 would be a stretch if it just said "BorinLoner having a friend" or even "BorinLoner having someone to talk to".
Is this just a joke?
*sobs*
I'm surprised it hasn't been mentioned yet!
The most unlikely treble has to be "Britain wins Eurovision" with the Orford / Hartigan Poker Rap
And yes that would be rap without the K lol
Great show Guys keep up the good work!
